Felony Battery Charge Follows Alleged Homophobic Outburst and Attack

Alphonso Williams Jr., 43. Was arrested on Monday and charged with felony battery by a repeat offender. 

The victim told police that she and Williams were hanging out with one of her female friends when Williams became upset and accused the victim of being gay. Williams then attacked the victim, causing a scratch on her wrist. The victim stated her friend pulled Williams off of her, ripping his shirt in the process. 

Williams’ shirt was visibly torn, and the victim had a scratch on her arm that was bleeding. 

Williams reportedly told police that “he does not know how the victim’s right wrist got scratched” and “advised that his shirt became ripped because he took the TV off the wall and the victim and her friends tried to stop him from leaving the apartment.” 

Williams was released after posting a $15,000 bond.

Williams was found guilty of misdemeanor domestic battery in 2011.
